These crashes are all various Sony devices with Adreno 220 or 225 GPUs running ICS 4.0.4. 

The OmxPlugin.cpp code near line 375 is calling mAudioSource->read(). I wonder if this crash is related to bug 785340, a different mAudioSource->read() crash that also started around 17.0a1/20120824.

This has moved up into the #1 spot for crashing - handing over to Chris for further investigation.

AFAICT, when Stagefright's MediaExtractor::Create() is sniffing the media file type, it calls back into our OmxPlugin's MediaStreamSource::readAt() with bad data. This is surprising because Stagefright is just peeking at the first few bytes of the media data; we haven't even begun decoding video yet.

The Sony Ericsson LT26i (Xperia S aka Xperia NX aka "Nozomi") accounts for about half of the crash reports, so it's either very popular or very crashy.

doublec, when you have a chance, can you please take a look at this Stagefright crash? This bug is our #1 topcrash for Fennec Beta 17. I'm supposed to be focusing 100% on B2G IME bugs right now, so my boss blassey has asked me to reassign my high-priority Stagefright bugs to you.

I don't have access to this type of phone. Can I get one sent to me?
I'll check the local importers today and see if any of them have the device I can expense.
I've been able to get a crash on a Sony Xperia Ion LT28H playing an mp4:

F/libc    ( 6063): Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV) at 0xc77a04ec (code=1)
If I use DataSource::CreateFromURI to create the datasource, passing a URI to an MP4 file, playback works although it uses the software decoder due to:

I/OmxPlugin( 7827): Unknown video color format: 0x7fa30c03
I/OmxPlugin( 7827): Falling back to software decoder

So for some reason our custom derived DataSource is causing the crash, much like it was on GingerBread. Does the Xperia have some sort of munged libstagefright?

All the crashing devices seem to be running the same OS version, ICS 4.0.4.

I saw a possibly related problem with media sniffing (bug 782830). When trying to sniff the media type on the Samsung Galaxy S III (ICS 4.0.4), the call to MediaExtractor::Create() would never return. Stagefright's AwesomePlayer would start playing our audio track, so we never got a chance to play the video ourselves. Strangely, I only saw this problem on the Korean/international model of the Galaxy S III, not North American model.

btw, color format 0x7fa30c03 is QOMX_COLOR_FormatYUV420PackedSemiPlanar64x32Tile2m8ka. The vlc source code claims this format is identical to NV12:

http://git.videolan.org/gitweb.cgi/vlc.git/?p=vlc.git;a=blob;f=modules/codec/omxil/qcom.c;h=9f530b2d5a0f0396b387ed88e175695530cfc1e1;hb=4a8d38843ad4012e2ea0c75e0c485edd6a41ce07#l36
Whiteboard: [native-crash] → [native-crash], [swdecoder]
It looks like Sony are using a modified DataSource - the wrong virtual functions are being called in places. I'm trying to track down what their class layout is.
I have playback working now with a modified DataSource.h. The virtual functions in DataSource.h seem to have been re-arranged and there's a new one that gets called. If I return 'OK' for that new one and put readAt in the spot in the table that the device seems to expect it works.

Remaining work:

1) More testing/minimize the patch
2) Change build to produce a shared library for these devices
3) Detect these devices somehow and load that specific shared library
4) Fix color conversion so hardware decoder works.
tracking-fennec: ? → 17+
I'm going to spin out (4) into a separate bug and just fix the crashing here since getting the color conversion working appears to be complicated. It's not NV12, the source mentioned in comment 11 seems to just refer to them naming the YUV420 portion of the identifier.

For (3) I'm unsure how specific the detection should be so I'm appealing to the android people to get an idea of what they'd prefer:

1) Calculate a CRC of the libstagefright shared library and only use our modified code loaded on devices with that specific CRC. 

This will likely break on minor device updates. But we won't know if our code works on those updates anyway.

2) Check specific device and android versions.

This could break if someone installs a 4.0.4 alternate rom with different stagefright libraries.

Thoughts? Other options?
I think option 2 sounds safer and easier. Would Sony's busted libstagefright.so likely have the same CRC on different device models (even if they are all running ICS 4.0.4)?
I don't think there is such a think as anything being "likely" in the android world sadly.
Attached patch Fix crash (obsolete) — Splinter Review
Fixes crash. Software decoding only due to lack of support for the color conversion format. I'll file a followup bug for this.

I've whitelisted the devices and versions I saw in the crashreports. I'm not sure if this is the right approach and I'm open to suggestions from the Android team to decide how they want to enable/switch on this.

I've only tested on a Sony Xperia Ion running 4.0,4 which previously crashed but with this patch plays video.

I only have a single Sony device for testing and this fix is only for Sony devices. In fact I can only say the fix works on the Sony Xperia Ion. And fixes the crash I encountered in comment 8. I defer to the Android team to tell me what devices they want to whitelist given that information. Hopefully they have more devices that me to test with.

Each of these signatures should be a separate bug report imho. Or each device should have a separate bug for it. Otherwise we're going to end up with one long bug constantly being reopened and closed for any crash in video playback.

I disagree. A bug is independent from the way it will be fixed or the device where it's tested.

If we want to add later a device currently not in crash stats to the newly created blacklist, we can file a dedicated bug.

1. Does this ALOG() need to be #ifdef'd ANDROID?

2. Would a "Failed to load" error message be helpful? Or is TryLoad() expected to be called with library names that might not be found (so an error message would cause unnecessary alarm)?

I prefer the fatal MOZ_ASSERT() over NS_ASSERTION(). We would crash on a null infoService anyways, so we might as well pinpoint the source of the error with an accurate assert.

I think these tricky device and version checks should be extracted into a separate function. If you refactored this code into a function like `const char* GetOmxPluginName()`, you could replace these multiple calls to TryLoad() with just one.

Also, GetOmxPluginName() would be a good place to add other whitelist/blacklist logic. The function could return NULL for blacklisted and unsupported devices.

Since you named these virtual functions "foo", I assume you don't know what Sony expects them to do. Does Sony's libstagefright actually call these functions or do you just need them to pad DataSource's vtable?

I think you should mark them private and add fatal MOZ_CRASH() or abort() even in release builds. If Sony's libstagefright calls our foo() functions, it will likely crash mysteriously later. I think a clean MOZ_CRASH() will make crash reports more informative.

I agree with doublec that each crash address should probably be a separate bug report. Different addresses suggest that the reason for the crash is different or that the library version is different. Since this bug is about Sony beaking binary compatibility of the libstagefright.so ABI, library version is particularly important for this bug.

Maybe we should file a new dependent bug for doublec's Sony libomxplugin.so@0xe37 fix and make this bug into a meta-bug?
